The Introductory Horse Management course delivers knowledge necessary for all horse owners to own a horse safely. It is of great benefit to any parent thinking of purchasing a pony for their children or parents already with horses and ponies who want to understand more.

We have a saying… “You don’t know what you don’t know till you realise you don’t know it!!”

Our course is provided online covering the 5 necessary units with 10 hours of video education. To participate in the assessment a further 20 hours is recommended. This time frame can be different from person to person.

There is a Live Zoom Question and Answer session held on the evening of the first Tuesday of each month, to work through any queries you may have regarding the course and its topics.

There are optional practical sessions available to practice your skills under guidance prior to assessments, held on the first Sunday of March, June and September. Bookings are essential to attend.

For participants wanting to take part in the Equestrian Australia final assessment a manual will need to be purchased from Equestrian Australia.

We will be offering these assessments to take place on the same days as our specified practical sessions. Bookings are essential. Alternatively, you can book an independent Equestrian Australia Coach Educator (perfect for our interstate students).

A horse is required for the assessment. If you do not have your own horse, we do have school horses available for hire -please let us know if we need to provide one for you for the duration of your assessment.
